Portable signs have been used for decades and they started out as lawn signs with letters that slid in on a track system allowing the message to be updated when needed.  The mobile marquee letter board sign then saw a significant improvement when digital print was used in place of block letters.  Digital print changed the perception of the traditional mobile sign to a mainstream product that would apply to all companies, both big and small.  Printed graphic mini billboards have pretty much replaced letter signs because this type of signage allows the advertiser to use any font, any colour and incorporate their logo and branding into this type of signage.  Add in the fact that you have reduced vandalism with less misspelled signage with inappropriate messages.
